It was nice. Good service. Nice cafe vibe. Great decor. We ordered the build your own waffle with jasmine Macha ice cream, seasonal fruit, brownie bite, green tea cream sauce ($10) and chicken and waffle ($12). The portion sizes are small for the price. When you make waffles, they normally are sectioned into quarters. Our orders only had 3/4 of the whole round waffle mold. The waffles aren't very big either. The waffles themselves were good but nothing special.
I generally like the build your own (flavour wise). They were just very frugal with the toppings. There was one scoop of ice cream, 4 pieces of strawberry (which wouldn't have added up to a full strawberry), and 6 pieces of cinnamon banana (again, would not have made up a full banana). There also want much brownie bits either. The combination of everything was good and I would eat it again if I didn't have to pay for it.
The chicken and waffles was fine as well but I wouldn't recommend. The chicken was bite sized popcorn chicken like. Overall, it was crisp and not too dry but didn't really pair with the waffle. It was also served with gravy that you can pour on. The gravy was on the blander side and I could see it wasn't a homogeneous mixture. I think they microwaved it because i could hear the ding and the sound when you open a microwave. The also looked like it had been reheated.
I know this cafe wants to be fancy by serving the food on a hot plate but it was really unnecessary. It kind of made things worse. It would dry the sauces very quickly and the brownies stuck to the surface. For something like the build you own, it's meant to be served cold so it doesn't make sense to have it on the hot plate.
I wouldn't mind coming back but I would prefer to explore other cafes.
